[OE-core][PATCH 1/2] systemd: do not let do_fetch depend on PACKAGECONFIG

[OE-core][PATCH 1/2] systemd: do not let do_fetch depend on PACKAGECONFIG

[Qi.Chen]

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com>

It's unnecessary to make SRC_URI contains something like:
${@bb.utils.contains('PACKAGECONFIG', 'xxx', 'file://xxx', '', d)}
This does not give us any benefit and it makes do_fetch depend
on PACKAGECONFIG, which means changing of PACKAGECONFIG will result
in rerunn of do_fetch.

Besides, the related codes in do_install already does the necessary
checks.

[OE-core][PATCH 2/2] systemd: add shell-profile-dropins PACKAGECONFIG

[Qi.Chen]

From: Chen Qi <Qi.Chen@windriver.com>

New version of systemd introduces dropins in /etc/profile.d. This
is usually OK for most cases. But in case of using minicom to connect
to the machine, there will be unnecessary output every time you type
a command.

This is because the /etc/profile.d/80-systemd-osc-context.sh[1] is setting
PS0 with OSC 3008 standard[2]. If a terminal (e.g., minicom) cannot
deal with this OSC 3008 standard, it will just output the whole contents.
This is quite annoying.

So add a new PACKAGECONFIG, shell-profile-dropins, to allow users a choice
to disable such behavior.

Qi,

There may be other files in profile.d as well as
80-systemd-osc-context.sh. In systemd 258.x, I also see
70-systemd-shell-extra.sh. I don't think we should offer the option of
disabling install of all systemd profile.d files in order to fix
incompatibility with just one of them.

There have been changes to 80-systemd-osc-context.sh in systemd 259. We
could try backporting 705e2ef19418 ("profile/osc-context: move and
extend check for TERM=dumb") if we're not ready to update to 259 yet and
see if that resolves the issue. We may also need dd20ba74e3b4
("profile/systemd-osc-context: fix overriding of PROMPT_COMMAND") and
97ad10c9aab1 ("profile: skip setting PS0 when PROMPT_COMMAND= is
cleared"), I'm not sure.

Best regards,

Hi Paul,

Thanks for checking upstream status.

I think you're right. The commits you mentioned above are likely to fix 
the issue.

I'll double check when upgrading systemd to 259.x.

Qi

I just tested current master which is on systemd 259.5. It includes the mentioned commits, however OSC injections still occur. Was there any particular config in mind that would disable them?

Thanks,
Martin

On top of what Paul said, we always want to be specific and not make assumptions when enabling/disabling PACKAGECONFIGS, so the “enabled” case should have been -Dshellprofiledir=${sysconfigdir}/profile.d.

[Chen, Qi]

Hi Ross,

Thanks for the review. I'll fix this and send out V2.
By the way, I didn't receive Paul's reply. If there's some other concern, please let me know.

Regards,
Qi
